Even with modern, highly sensitive instruments, there are a lot of unknowns in biomedical research. Dayanjan Wijesinghe explains how machine learning and other methods can help researchers optimize data in a way that leads to better clarity and insight. The techniques discussed are applied to a clinically relevant data set on a journey to identify diagnostic molecules and therapeutic requirements for precision medicine.

“Well, the challenge is, even though we have really great instruments—very sensitive instruments—we still have a lot of unknowns.”
